Commercial riding mowers recalled by Toro

According to the CPSC: "Mowers with the optional deluxe seat have an operator presence switch built into the seat that may activate the mower when the operator vacates the seat, posing an injury hazard from the blade to the operator and anyone in the vicinity of the mower."

The recall affects some 3,700 units in the United States and another 100 in Canada. Only one injury has been reported.

The commercial machines with 52-in. to 72-in. cutting decks range in price from $13,000 to $17,000.
